Activated Research Company (ARC) is pleased to announce that the Polyarc system is now available from Agilent Technologies, Inc. “Our customers are always looking for ways to improve the accuracy and speed of chemical analysis. Now, scientists can purchase our technology factory-installed on industry-leading Agilent GC systems, giving them easier access to fast and reliable data,” said Andrew Jones, CEO of ARC. “This is a great fit for ARC and our customers.”

The Polyarc system is a breakthrough innovation that combines catalysis with chemical analysis to revolutionise 60-year-old GC/FID technology. The technology not only gives scientists time back in the lab by increasing throughput, but it can also help manufacturing sites catch errors that can mitigate millions of dollars in wasted raw material costs. This simple add-on device allows for minimal disruption of current analytical methods and is easy to install and maintain.
